Over the past year Manga UK have finally been releasing the DBZ Movies in the UK and I'm slowly picking them up along with the DBS Blu Ray's, so recently the other day I finally got to the third movie pack which includes the Cooler movies, they're all DVD and Blu Ray combo packs, which is cool, though I'll probably never touch the DVD. I've also picked up Vol. 3 of the DBS Manga and picked up a nice little Bardock key-ring as well as a figure of Cui, only £3.99 and has really good detail for such a cheap figure, not that big but detailed.

Update - My Brother is getting me Xenoverse 2 on PS4 for my Birthday on Wednesday, been meaning to pick it up for so long, have sunk so many hours into the original, will have a lot of DLC to buy for Xenoverse 2 though, but will keep with just the base game for now, until I get money for the DLC.

Keep an eye out for sales.

The last Dragon Ball related purchase for me was Season 2 of Dragon Ball Z Kai (for my brother's birthday present).

Recently, I purchased the entire Z portion of the Dragon Ball VIZBIG releases. I just ordered the whole Dragon Ball series off Amazon last Sunday, and am expected them to arrive sometime this weekend. This is only a temporary placement for all my manga; until I get a proper bookshelf, that is. The benefits of working at a Barnes & Nobles does you wonders.

Oooooo man what kind of discounts do you get for yourself? I've been itching to get some manga but it's so dang expensive to collect for something like Bleach or whatever that has 70+ volumes. Maybe I'll get a job at B&N haha.

I get an employee discount of 20% towards all store merchandise. I actually picked up those two build-them-up figures from the store. It's great.

I only bought volumes 1-6 from work, and bought the rest from eBay.

Cool mate! I know you've been after sealed sets for a while now, so it's great your making progress! Very jealous of the Laser Disc.. they are great for framing.

That was a really good buy as 320 divided by 49 is 6.5$ a piece. I've also wanted those for the longest time but so far haven't gotten to them.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

Thanks! I need 5 more box sets plus laser discs. So nearly there.

I never thought to frame the laser disc!

I just scrolled through the page and saw your post. Gotta get rid of some non dbz dvds to fit those on lol

Yeah you should definitely check out some frame options. I have a small select range of Laserdiscs, and have them framed and they look really nice. If your not planning on viewing them frequently, its better than having them just on a shelf imo.

I just bought the first three "Dragon Ball Full Color" manga volumes.

I've been meaning to replace the .... mistakes ... I made when when I was younger with what I wanted.
Now seemed a good chance as any.

Movie hype is sinking in! WCD Vol.1 just basically got that for Grotesque Zamasu, Prince Vegeta WCFs I am happy about all 6 for ¥3,500 when the rare screaming one goes for almost that much alone couldn't say no!

Also just put in an order for DBS Part 4. But this is basically me done until October now (DBS Part 5, FES UI Goku & WCD Vol.2) then after what will be a HUGE December...!

I pre-ordered the new 11 inch Ichiban Kuji Full Power Broly figure. Hopefully I'll be able to make room for him before he gets here :P

I managed to find someone selling the Raditz and Nappa Personality Cards from the old Dragon Ball Z CCG.
Found someone selling the Metal Cooler cards as well.

I really need to start clearing some space too. Like I have to put Geandista UI Goku on my desk!

My 15,000yen for the new movie budget is all gone didn't get to pre order Masterlise SSGSS Goku, New Character B (hopefully it's just another form of A) and WCF's so will have to have the stress of waiting until release to find
good deals on them...

WCF's in general gonna be pain, apparently overseas only allowed to sell them as entire or half cases or single as blind box if ordering online. Japan is 11,000yen for the entire set of 6 that is f**king ridiculous. I pray this is the end of 6&4 ratios please, Banpresto never ratio One Piece like this from what I've seen instead DB is stuck with this BS.

I bought the Base Goku DLC because I was trying to look for a replacement for Freeza on my team...but I completely SUCK with him and Freeza got a buff to boot...I might just go back to using him.

Base Goku as in, the normal Son Goku character isn't free on FighterZ but rather a paid DLC character? Jeez, the game is a masterpiece in its own right but the way the DLC has been handled has been pretty terrible.
